A “maker” identity has beenassociated with specific attitudes and abilities, such as creativity, the ability to createphysical models, and the embracing of failure, which engineering educators are nowstriving to foster in their students and throughout curricula.1-3 Over the past ten years,makerspaces, or innovation spaces, have been developed
